I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at ALSTOM (West Henrietta, NY) in Apr 2008
Interview
Speak with immediate manager and three peers. No problems there and I have never heard of any problems from my coworkers. Then you interview with the HR representative. They will make a concerted effort to find problems even when none exist. This is consistent with the vast majority of my peers that I have spoken with.
